Last weekend, we went over to Brad and Donna’s goat farm for dinner. Emily, our thirteen year old, bottle-fed the newborn kids after dinner. Brad cooked up a roast of pork from our farm, roasted fresh asparagus from his garden, made a salad of arugula to go with his homemade goat cheese, gave each of us a slice of escarole pie, and I brought a Caramel Cake for dessert, albeit a worse for wear during the truck ride. All in all, the perfect Vermont spring dinner.
